Collettivo MINE

Esercizi per un manifesto poetico

Italy The Twenty22

Five individuals breathe in unison to reveal a synchronised choral weaving of bodies and space. From repetition and stubborn determination, a single powerful stage action emerges; five bodies become one showing how we can endure the passage of time together as a group.

'Esercizi per un manifesto poetico' is Collettivo MINE’s debut piece, a co-authored choreographic manifesto written by ten hands which builds a collective language. Through rigorous choreographic writing, this evocative quintet unfolds a vibrant emotional picture that plays in the here and now.

Biography

MINE was born from the artistic encounter between Francesco Saverio Cavaliere, Siro Guglielmi, Fabio Novembrini, Roberta Racis and Silvia Sisto. MINE is a collective based on horizontal creation and ten-handed choreographic writing. Esercizi per un manifesto poetico, winner of the 2019 edition of DNA Appunti Coreografici, marks the beginning of their artistic collaboration. In 2020 they presented the choreographic project ‘Corpi Elettrici’, in collaboration with the Gender Bender Festival and the Electronic Music School of the G.B. Martini in Bologna. In 2021 as part of the ‘Swans never die project’ they created Living Like I Know I’m gonna die.
